Primary Use Cases
- Office Deployments: Power Cisco Aironet 1800/2800 Series APs in commercial buildings.
- Data Centers: Connect Catalyst switches to Australian power grids without adapters.
- Retail Spaces: Ensure compliance during PoS or surveillance system installations.
Addressing Buyer Questions
Q: Is this cord compatible with Cisco Catalyst 9200 switches?
Yes, provided the switch uses a C13 inlet. Verify device specifications before purchase.
Q: Can it be used outdoors?
No. The AIR-PWR-CORD-AU= lacks weatherproofing—opt for outdoor-rated PDUs or enclosures.
Q: Does it support PoE injectors?
Yes, but ensure the injector’s power draw stays below 10A to avoid overloading.
Where to Purchase
For guaranteed compliance with Cisco warranties, the AIR-PWR-CORD-AU= is available at ITMALL’s Cisco power accessories. Their refurbished units undergo conductivity testing and include 6-month replacements.
Field Insight
During a Brisbane hospital upgrade, non-compliant cables caused intermittent power drops in Cisco APs due to loose pins. Switching to AIR-PWR-CORD-AU= resolved the issue, but only after confirming C13 connector snugness with a pull test. While third-party cords are cheaper, ITMALL’s Cisco-validated stock ensures precise plug molding—critical for avoiding arcing in high-load scenarios. For Australian deployments, this cord is a baseline, not an option.
